Codex Types

Codex entries can be organized by type. These groups are system set and currently cannot be added to, as certain types are required in parts of the interface. For example, only a character can be set for the POV of a story or scene.

Characters

Here, you can create entries for your primary characters or even those one-off individuals who play a small but significant role in your narrative. By keeping track of everyone, you can ensure that your readers won’t get confused with multiple characters sharing the same name.

Characters aren’t limited to humans - think pets, robots and the like.

Locations

From rooms or towns, to countries and galaxies, you can include any physical setting that plays a role in your story. Defining your locations helps you maintain consistency and easily refer back to important locations as your narrative progresses.

Objects/Items

Here, you can store information about significant items like King Arthur’s sword or magical wands. These objects hold importance and often drive the plot forward, so having them documented in the Codex ensures their seamless integration into your storytelling.

Lore

Delve deeper into the world-building aspects of your novel. Whether it’s a special magic system, unique species or races, or the intricacies of a religion, this section allows you to explore and document the rich lore that underpins your story.

Subplot

Track your subplot progressions in the matrix view by making codex entries for them. You can then use the progressions/additions feature within the write interface to show the timeline of the subplot through your story.

Other

This is the catch-all section where you can place anything that doesn’t fit neatly into the other types. It can include corporations, gangs, clans, or even additional genre information. Get creative and use this entry type to group together elements that don’t have a specific type.
